IntelliJ IDEA vs The Jupyter Notebook: Which is best for you?

The debugger is also very good, its interface tools make it easy to track variables and analyze stack traces, helping a lot in more complex projects .

the AI assistant is nice when it works, but it often doesnt, and your code snippets/project files are aggressively truncated behind the scenes making the tool much less useful for anything other than very narrow prompts lacking context

The intuitive interface makes coding and visualizing data really straightforward, and the ability to keep documentation next to your code is a huge plus for clarity.

It's not as fast as other IDEs and isn't ideal for building fully deployable Data Science applications.
